How to Create a Vintage Rusty Metal Sign Using Illustrator & Photoshop

Follow along with today's tutorial to produce a simple motor oil brand sign with a 50s inspired design, using type and colours that are based on authentic examples.
We'll use Illustrator to construct the design for its powerful shape and text editing tools, then we'll transfer the artwork over to Photoshop to distress it using a rusty metal texture. I'll show you how a simple layer mask trick can instantly take your crisp digital design and give it a realistic weathered patina look.
